  • Curtailed playlists in iTunes when using Apple TV

    After searching in vain on this site to find out if anyone else was having problems with the number of playlists that they could see in their Apple TV sync window, I finally got frustrated enough to make the erronious assumption that I needed to re-install iTunes to fix this annoying problem. No luck. The number of Playlists in the sync window is apparently limited to just over a thousand. This means that I have access only to my albums whose titles fall between "A" and "P". I can't sync Rolling Stones or ZZ Top to my Apple TV as they fall outside the apparent sync limit. I can, however, see and playback all playlists on the Apple TV when I set the source to stream my iTunes library. Has anyone else hit this playlist limit? (incidentally, this same scenario occurs with syncing my iPod -- only around a thousand playlists appear).

    True, I can see all of my C.D.'s in order of album in the main window with the recent addition of the "cover flow" feature. However, back in the era of iTunes 2.0 and onwards when I was burning all of my C.D.'s, such a thing did not exist. My only choice was to scroll through ten to fifteen or more songs in the playlist for each album -- very tedious with so many titles. It was much more efficient and elegant to have a playlist for each album at that time. And now, well, you can't teach an old dog new tricks, right? I am kind of stuck in my ways, now, after having catalogued such a large collection. Also, with such a large library, I find Coverflow to be slow and somewhat ponderous -- even on my iMac duo Intel. It is still faster and more efficient to scroll down the playlists.

  • When using apple remote app on ipad or iphone to control apple TV is there a way of selecting different airplay speakers?

    When using apple remote on ipdad or iphone to control apple TV is there a way to select different airplay speakers without having to control the menu on screen. Eg I want to listed to my music through apple tv (which is in the living room)  and beam it to my airplay speakers in my bedroom, at the moment I would have to go back into the living room to see my tv screen to select the bedroom airplay speakers, then go back upstairs to listen to the music. YOu should be able to select the speakers in app without looking at the TV screen. Hopefully that makes sense!?!

    Look at this.

    Assuming you have these accounts set up in Mail, open preferences and under Accounts tab, edit the SMTP outgoing server list. Do you have a .mac address in the list? If so, delete it.
    Are you using iCloud?
    For the troubled account, select the correct SMTP server for that account in the box and check the box to use only that server with that account.

  • Has anyone experienced the loss of audio when using Apple TV when it has been working fine?

    I can't get any audio through my reciever when using Apple TV. It's been working fine until a week ago. I've check my reciever, unplug the TV, and Apple TV as described but nothing. I switch to my Direct TV input and I can get audio when not using ATV. I've tried most everything I've read on blogs but nothing. One of those "pull your hair out" issues. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks, Vince

    Hi there Vfall!
    I have some information for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue:
    If you can see video but can't hear sound
    If Apple TV is connected to a receiver, make sure the receiver is turned on.
    Make sure the input setting you've selected on your receiver matches the input you have your audio cables connected to. See the documentation that came with your receiver for more information.
    Make sure the volume on your TV or receiver is turned up and isn't muted.
    Check whether you can hear sound while playing video only. Also, check whether you can hear audio feedback while clicking through menu options.
    If you're connected to the HDMI port on your TV and Apple TV, make sure your TV supports audio through its HDMI port. The HDMI ports on some older TVs support only video.
    If you are using HDMI audio, try disconnecting and reconnecting the HDMI cable.
    If you're connected to the HDMI port on your TV and Apple TV, make sure your TV is setup to receive audio from HDMI. For some TV's this is automatic, but for others there is a choice between digital and analog (for HDMI audio, choose digital). Read more about HDMI audio.
    Try the other audio outputs on Apple TV to see if they work.
    If possible, try using different audio cables.

  • Can I get audio through iPhone when using apple tv?

    Can I get audio through iPhone when using apple tv?

    What do you mean exactly? Are you wanting to output the audio to your iPhone while say watching a video on your Apple TV?  If so, I'm afraid it's not possible.  However, you should post this in the Apple TV forums for a better confirmation on then.  There are some prettty knowledgable people who hang out there.

  • When using Apple TV

    When using Apple TV the mirror feature works fine on my iPhone, my daughters ipad and my wife's ipad mini but on my ipad I can only get certain bits to work ie photos, you tube but it will not mirror home screen or photos albums

    The First generation iPad does not support mirroring.
    Only Second Generation iPad and above.

    As you found out you can only get video output from certain apps.

    Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

    Yes, that is correct.  My spreadsheet has the following information in those cells if you want to compare yours on Monday:

    I ended up bringing the Macbook Pro home with me after struggling with it for a half hour at the end of a long day. I called and within 5 minutes the problem was corrected.  The technician said they were getting calls all day. 

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • Can't Apple Remote to iTunes when using iPhone as a Personal Hotspot

    My AT&T iPhone 4S is set up to be used as Personal Hotspot.  So I turn HotSpot on and connect my MacBook Pro to my iPhone's internet just fine.
    However, when I open Apple Remote app on the iPhone, it won't connect to iTunes on my MBP. 
    I have set it up at home where both iPhone and MBP are connected to the wireless connection on the Apple Airport.  It worked perfectly in that configuration.
    I'm in a band that plays weddings and corporate events.  During breaks, I use Apple iTunes to DJ tracks.  If I can't use Remote, I'm tethered to the stage constantly.  This is a big problem.  I need the internet connection to buy songs that are requested that I don't already own.  And I need to be able to control iTunes remotely for when I'm in the crowd running microphones from one person to another during speeches and such.
    Is there a setting that I'm missing somewhere?  Or am I just outta luck for this configuration?
    Thx, Patrick

    Hi! This will solve the problem. Connect iphone personal hotspot, on macbook turn on - internet connection sharing - create your network - connect iphone to that network, you will have internet connection and mac with iphone will think that you are on wifi network. From that point will everything work - also remote control and remote sync with itunes. Try it!.

  • How to set Updates with 11.3 when using Apple Remote Desktop for installation?

    So for all pre-11.3 versions of Flash Player on OSX, I have just pulled out the "Adobe Flash Player.pkg" installer package from the installer .dmg and used Apple Remote Desktop to deploy Flash to the Macs I manage.
    However, when doing that with Flash 11.3, this leaves the "Updates" setting in the Flash Player System Preference set to "Notify me to install updates".
    I'd like to push something that would set this to "Allow Adobe to install updates".
    Is there a way to modify the .pkg installer to have the System Preference set to that value (or push/copy some other .plist file to the clients to have that setting enabled?)
    Thanks!

    I poked around a bit and the file seems to be:
    /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mms.cfg
    I'd like to get some confirmation from Adobe that this is the correct file to push, though (it seems like it as it only contains this):
    AutoUpdateDisable=0
    SilentAutoUpdateEnable=1

  • IPhone not recognized in iTunes when using WiFi sync

    I have found that my iPhone is frequently not recognized when using WiFi sync.  The only way to sync my phone when that happens is to use the old fashioned way--connect it to my computer via USB.  Then the phone is recognized and syncs fine.  The device shows even when I take my iPhone off power.  But when I close iPhone and later reopen it and plug in my iPhone to power, often it is not recognized.  I've tried everything I can think of but nothing works.
    Any ideas?

    I am having the same problem.  It was working just fine and then just mysteriously stopped showing up in iTunes (my iPad still shows up & syncs via wifi just fine--it is just my iPhone).  Someone please reply soon, this is driving me nuts! Thanks in advance!!

  • IPhone 6 does not show in iTunes when using WiFi

    My iPhone 6+ shows up in iTunes when connected via USB. But if I disconnect the cable and turn off iTunes and then come back later it does not show up like my iPhone 5 did using OS 7.
    I have the option selected in iTunes to "automatically connect using WiFi".
    I have tried turning off my phone and restarting iTunes but it does not help.
    Any suggestions?

    Greetings Paul,
    It sounds as though you are attempting to sync with iTunes via WiFi, and are running into some complications. After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning iTunes WiFi sync:
    Sync using Wi-Fi
    Open iTunes
    To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable.
    Click the Device button in the upper-right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button first.) If you don't see your device, choose View > Hide Sidebar.
    In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi."
    When the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when the following conditions are true:
    The iOS device is charging.
    iTunes is open on the computer.
    The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network.
    While the iOS device is in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
    Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
    If the iOS device doesn't appear in the Devices section or you can't sync, please try these steps.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    BobbyD
